Former grade 5 teacher Paul Staso needs your help.  Paul is keeping his promise to run across America because students in his wife’s grades 4 and 5 classes were successful at virtually running and walking across the U.S. during the 2005-2006 school year. On June 23, 2006 Staso will embark on a 3,200 mile, 15-state journey on foot. This will be a solo run of 35 miles per day for 92 days. 

Paul is looking for support via e-mail, donations and/or accommodations.
